Kaafu Guaidhoo defeats Thaa Thimarafushi by 1-0 in today’s evening game, becoming the first team to guarantee a spot in the quarterfinals of the Ninety Plus Gold Cup.
Guraidhoo scored the goal on a counter-attack, as Ahmed Ibrahim struck from a one-on-one with the goalkeeper after being set up by a through ball by Naaim (Helmet Jr).
The remaining game of Group E will be played on Saturday evening, as Fuvahmulah faces Guraidhoo. Thimarafushi will have to depend on the result of that game to know their fate. A draw on Saturday will be enough for Fuvahmulah to qualify.
The first and second placed teams from this group will face qualifiers from Group H (Kurendhoo/Alifushi/Male’ City)
